I really wasn't expecting so many people to relate. Spme of your mothers belong in prison. I've been hit before but omg. After what, 10 it never happened because my mother said I was too old for it and should know better than to do something that would warrant a belt. If she ever in her life went off on me like that I would probably never talk to her again. Wtf is going on in some of your mother's heads??? I have so many questions.

I believe my mother is bipolar as well. I was the unexpected child so my brother and I are eight years apart. She always compared him to me as if he was an angel and I was the devil. He was her baby and could do no wrong. She said her slick comments when my dad wasn't around while at work so I was defending myself 99% of the time. My brother and I both got our asses kicked but I got it the worst since I was a girl. I do think she was jealous of me in a sense that I knew and spoke the language, went to school, did well, etc. she tried to turn me into a prototype of her: church going, god fearing, cooking, cleaning, man serving woman and I was NOT having it. She was incredibly controlling, bossy, demanding and at times pure evil. I saw her abuse my dad as well. There were so many times when i thought i should let her knock me to the ground and pretend to stop breathing. The last straw was when she tried to hit me with a metal baseball bat. I turned into the female hulk and stepped to her. I didn't touch her but she backed up in fear when I went off on her. If she did hit me with that bat one of us would've ended up in the hospital and it wasn't going to be me. She hasn't fucced with me since. She'll tell me she loves me but I don't really believe her. It's crazy to hear her criticize female relatives and their parenting styles and she acts like she's the best mother of the year.

this thread brings back memories and make me really sad even though i havent spoken to her in 3 years i still hear her yelling at me..ill be in my apartment and ill still hear her and get scared..when i was homeless and this lady took me in she said she would watch me sleep thru the night and i would jump at every noise i heard
